Kathleen felt that if it were not for Madeline being autistic, she would have suspected that Samuel had deliberately taught her to say those words.

That jerk is capable of anything!

“I miss him.” Madeline pouted.

“All right.” Kathleen nodded in resignation before looking at Federick. “Go ahead and call him then.”

The latter felt around his pocket. “I left my phone in the car.”

 

Kathleen was at a loss for words.

“Why don’t you call him instead?” he suggested.

“I don’t have his phone number,” she murmured in reply.

“He hasn’t changed his number, so you should be able to memorize it, right?” Federick asked.

Kathleen bit her lip. She did remember Samuel’s phone number but did not expect that he was still using the same number.

Looking at Madeline’s aggrieved face, she took out her phone and called him.

After two beeps, the call was picked up.

“Hello?” Samuel’s voice was as captivating as always, magnetic and pleasant to the ears.

Kathleen could not help but feel nervous upon hearing his voice, causing her to fall silent for a while.

“Kate?” Samuel called out.

She knitted her brows. “Are you watching the live stream?”

“No.” He answered in a raspy voice, “I’m still at the office. I have some matters to attend to. Is something the matter?”

“Since you’re busy, just forget it,” she uttered flatly.

It’s already eight o’clock, and he’s still at the office. Is he truly such a money lover? A certain someone once said that money is just a number to him. He’s already so rich, so why is he still working so hard?

“I’m done with work. Go on.” Samuel’s voice was extremely gentle.

I’ll be willing to listen to her even if she spoke for the entire night.
